I've had this discussion before, and I wanted to present you some counter-argument as to why it is useful having the reports on the trending page.

1 - It presents the problem of abuse on Steemit and raises awareness that the issue is not only massive, but also growing at an ALARMING rate, and shows that more community members need to get involved in combating abuse.

2 - It shows new members that there is an initiative that combats abuse on Steemit. They have a place to discover us, and find a quick link to all the the documentation we have provided on Steemit for steemcleaners (the guides). Hiding us from the front page will exasperate the abuse problem, as new members will not understand the gravity of the situation.

3 - The views you see are likely representative of new members discovering steemcleaners. A member of steemit who knows of steemcleaners or already helps out, has no interest in reading the log. They know it will be massive, they have already mentally checked-out. I hypothesize that only new members who first discover us, are the view counts you see.

Now, on to some subtleties:

I see you downvoted our reports, which takes away funding from the entire community of volunteer abuse fighters. Note that this indirectly reduces the incentive for these active abuse finders to perform the (thankless) task of finding abuse, and using their power on flagging instead of curation. All of the reward goes to volunteers, and taking this away from them is sad, in my opinion. It's not going to one author like the all the other trending page posts, it's going to tens to hundreds of Steemians each week, as a reward for their time, which could have otherwise been spent curating or creating content for reward.

In regards to upvoting comments, there is a reason we issue reports instead of comments for receiving reward. This is primarily because of bots. The unfortunate reality of the current situation is that voting bots do not care about comments, only top-level posts, and thus giving a central place for people to "lazily" support our initiative provides the source of funding. To further this point, you have many options to upvotes comments to issue steemcleaners rewards. In fact, there are several hundred in each report! But people do not upvote these comments, despite the linear reward change, because the majority of those whom support us are bots whom are "lazily" supporting us through a 3rd party voting service.

And some higher level thoughts on front page curation:

I think there's a bigger problem than just steemcleaners being on the trending page. 5 things about dan and eos gets old. 10 posts by sweetsssj, bookingteam.com, and other top authors is not a great first impression. You even circled steemvoter by mistake, and I think that's an even worse problem than us, but I digress...

Potential Solutions?

I can remove the reports from the front page, by communicating with the bot owners and telling them to stop voting for us. In fact, I have to do so, because Steemcleaners is always strapped for funding and I cannot afford a 'whale splash' and have you downvote us. I have to do exactly as you tell me to do.

My only hope is that you read this argument and think of a perhaps better solution to raise awareness for steemcleaners and abuse fighting, as we are presently and consistently overwhelmed and understaffed, to the brink of collapse.

Delegation of power

Presently, we're more strapped for manpower rather than voting power. With a few members having access to the Hive account@adm account, we're currently capable of removing most reward from abuse. We also use our personal accounts often, and message the users who upvote it and get them to remove votes. Arguably, it's more useful to have people un-vote, as they then recognize their mistake, rather than us simply cleaning up the mess. The only issue we run into is blocktrades' voting, as he does not care about abuse.
I think I would rather see power delegated to fantastic curators like Hive account@liberosist, to hopefully improve the front page quality, but power delegated to Hive account@steemcleaners would of course be welcome and would be still useful to flag every-day plagiarism.
